Hi guys! *scratches neck awkwardly* I've been really busy with my own life *cough* school work *cough* and I'd like to be able to say that I'll update at least once a week but I think that'll be unlikely as I have my mocks coming up soon.

Queue the shameless plug; I'm about to post a new story, probably called 'Dandini and the Chankles Incident'. This is going to be a very cheesy, joke of a story. I attend a performing arts group and we were doing an adapted, modern version of Cinderella (I had the role of the fabulous, sassy Fairy Godmother :D). During the weeks we learnt and rehearsed the pantomime, we came up with a backstory where Dandini and Charming had secret romantic feelings for one another. This was started by the girls who played Dandini and Charming and developed by the rest of us so it's not my idea but a mixture of people's. I decided to throw it into a silly fanfiction (that I promised Charming I'd post for ages so kudos for her for being patient). I found it very hard to separate the characters and my friends (it was so awkward!) but I've managed it, so guys, if you're reading this...I'm so sorry XD. It's what happens after Dandini is struck off the pay role (part of the script). As you can tell, this will be a Cinderella fanfiction and I don't own Cinderella or the adapted script, or most of this idea in general (though I invented the word chankles...don't ask XD). It'll most likely be up later today.

Thank you jaeenkil for the review!

Disclaimer; I don't own Harry Potter or anything to do with it :(

Anyway, on with the story (I'm winging this, my plot bunnies have only slightly returned).

The Gryffindor party was in full swing as they celebrated their latest victory over the Ravenclaw quidditch team. The lights flashed and the music blared as people helped themselves to the snacks and drinks. Suddenly, a 'BANG!' rang out through the common room. Everybody stopped and turned slowly towards the source of the noise. A certain two redheads were levitating slightly off the ground, their skin having turned Smurf blue and their faces covered in soot. Vials of dark green liquid were held in each of their hands, held at an angle just above the punch bowl. Hermione and Seamus sidled over with matching smirks on their faces.

'Well, it looked like our plan worked.' The bushy haired chipmunk said.

'BUSHY HAIRED?! CHIPMUNK?!' The girl screamed in rage. The author backed off slowly to join Draco in cowering in the corner, both not wanting to be punched or cursed.

'Wait, what are you doing here Malfoy?' The boy-who-was-currently-glaring-at-the-author said. 'This is a Gryffindor party! No snakes allowed!'

The ferret in question threw his hands in front of his face and waved them manically, 'You didn't see anything.' He said mysteriously as he backed away into the shadows, becoming half ferret, half plant pot. Harry and Ron exchanged a questioning look before shrugging and turning back to Hermione and Seamus for an explanation.

'We knew those terrors wouldn't be able to resist an opportunity like this,' Seamus said in his Irish lilt, 'So we warded the refreshments table to trigger a trap if any questionable substances were brought near it. It seems it did it's, wait, why's there a house elf over there?'

Sure enough, Dobby was levitating in the air, having turned blue, he was covered in soot and his ear hair was smoking. The author cackled in the corner, having enlisted the help of the illustrious house elf in her latest plot with the Weasley twins. Lavender Brown giggled at the house elf before the author came up behind her and shoved her over. She hated giggly girls.

'Dobby?' Harry questioned in disbelief. The house elf looked at Harry with absolute adoration in his eyes, bordering on the line of creepy obsession. Harry stepped back with a slight grimace.

'Harry Potter sir! Dobby be's hired by Cursed Scone to be causing 'chaos and crisis' according to hers' The house elf squeaked proudly. Said author grinned guiltily before slinking back to her cave. She needed to take down her Christmas decorations, which were probably the cause of her bad luck.

Hermione waved her wand and the twins and Dobby were dropped. Dobby leapt up screaming, 'Every elfses for himselfses' before disappearing with a 'pop!'. The author suddenly burst through the portrait hole in her army uniform shouting 'This is a rescue mission!' and making siren noises as she grabbed the twins and apparated out with a 'crack!'. Draco jumped out from his corner and ran squeaking, uhm, screaming to the portrait hole.

'I thought you couldn't apparate inside of Hogwarts?' Ron said gormlessly. The author popped back in, a blue rash having appeared on her hands which was quickly spreading. She had yet to realise she was turning into a human blueberry.

'OMG Ron! I'm the author, I can do whatever I want! I can also...convince Dumbles to give me certain privileges.' The author got ready to apparate back out again, muttering under her breath about Dumbles not texting her back, before disappearing again with another 'crack!'

'What was all that about?' Dean Thomas questioned.

'Well, it's common knowledge that she's not exactly sane so' Hermione started before being interrupted by Dean.

'No, I meant her hands, they were turning blue! I know she's of questionable sanity.' Dean cocked his head at Hermione for an explanation.

'Well you see, it's a rather brilliant spell, one of Professor Vector's creations actually. She let me use it encase the twins played up. They'll stay blue until they apologise, but they have to mean it. And, anybody that they touch that was involved or new about their plan will also turn blue. The common room erupted into laughter, with the exception of Lavender, who giggled. A pink haired Smurf popped into the room and pushed her over, before leaving again.

At breakfast the next morning, the Gryffindor's were shocked to see a very angry, very blue Professor Sinistra sulking at the Head Table.

Author note: I think I'm losing my touch XD. I'm struggling with ideas lately so the past two chapters haven't been up to scratch with my usual standard. Anyway, thanks for reading! Until next time :)
